Thanks again...we are on our way to Costco in a few minutes to have some 215 70 15 put on, unless someone is quick enough to talk me out of it. I hope the 70 series is'nt too big. I had looked at 215 65 15 but the sidewall is not rated as high. The 70 series is a 97 and the 65 series is 92. I think this should fill the wheel wells up nice and hopefully have no contact with anything. I worry about those tie rods on the front but like Renntag says it is not much of a difference and I have at least an inch of room there. If it is only 10 millimeters wider than what I had (205's)that should be 5 mm on each side of the rim which should easily still clear.

We are going with the Pirelli p4 four season plus. They look good and the guy that works there says he has them on his car and loves them. Had to spend an extra 100 bucks for these over the Bridgestones but the bridgestones are no longer availible.
